Health Care And Social Assistance – Nursing Assignment

Part 1

Present an analysis of an industry you may work in when you graduate (or in which you currently work and intend to continue in), giving a
clear sense of its place in society and some significant influences that act on and shape that industry. For example:

1)Which industry do you aspire to work in after you graduate?

2)What does this industry do? What kind of contribution does it make to society? Does it have specific aims involving the inclusion of Indigenous communities?

3)What associations or peak bodies represent or oversee this industry? How is it viewed by the broader public?

4)How many people are involved in the industry? What kinds of roles or professions do they have? How has this industry grown or changed since it was first established?

Part 2:

Focus on a specific profession within the industry, and describe the skills, qualities, attitudes or knowledge that are valued in that
profession and are required to be successful in it.

1)What area or role might you aspire towards within this industry? (Or alternatively, what area or role do you ?currently hold and intend to
continue in within your industry?)

2)Are there requirements for professionals within this industry? (eg.) Competency standards, Code of ?Conduct/Code of Ethics, or Registration standards (see readings). What education or qualifications are ?necessary to enter this profession?

3)What do professionals within the field say are valued or necessary to be successful? You might find it useful to look at current job advertisements for the field you aspire to, looking at the skills and ?qualifications that are desirable.

Part 3

Reflect briefly on both your strengths and weaknesses in relation to those you have ?identified as valued in your profession.

1)You might like to consider your personality and learning style, as well as transferable skills gained through work ?experience, and co-curricular activities. Avoid focussing just on generic skills (eg. ‘teamwork’) – be specific, ?provide evidence, and overtly identify linkages with the profession and industry you’ve discussed.

2)How do you know these are your strengths/weaknesses? What have prior experiences led you to think so?
